What it is
Napoleon Original Tortellini With Cheese Filling are small, ring-shaped pasta parcels. Each piece is carefully crafted with a delicate dough encasing a savory cheese filling.

How people cook with it
These tortellini are a versatile ingredient that can elevate many dishes. They are perfect for weeknight dinners or more elaborate meals.
- Tossed with pesto
- Simmered in broth
- Baked with marinara
- Served with butter
To prepare, bring a large pot of salted water to a rolling boil. Gently add the tortellini, ensuring they do not stick together. Stir occasionally as they cook. The tortellini will float to the surface when they are nearly done. Continue to cook for a few more minutes until they reach your desired tenderness. Drain them carefully and then combine with your chosen sauce, broth, or other accompaniments. They are best served immediately after cooking to enjoy their fresh texture and flavor.
How it differs from similar foods
Unlike larger pasta shapes, tortellini are designed to be a complete bite with their filling. The cheese filling provides a creamy counterpoint to the pasta, offering a richer flavor profile than plain pasta alone. Their small size also means they cook more quickly.
Who it is for
Anyone looking for a convenient and flavorful pasta option will appreciate these tortellini.
How to keep the rest
After opening the package, store any unused tortellini in an airtight container in the refrigerator. Ensure they are kept cool and dry to maintain their freshness. It is best to consume them within a few days of opening for optimal quality.
